Smash Cast (feat Jennifer Hudson) I Cant Let Go

They say nothing lasts forever Well, I wish that that were true Cause this aching in my heart won t go away They say everything must change They say that time will see it through Well, I ve listened and I ve waited for that day But I wake with this anger And the pain won t let me be And the smile I share Is only there for show If I hang on to this heartache Then my soul will not be free So I keep trying But I just cannot let go I can t let go I need it to remind me I can t let go Oh, I just repeat the past And though your arms are saying yes I feel my heart keeps saying no I want to love you But I can t let go I had to live through bad beginnings And I ve seen unhappy ends So I close the book Before the story starts I m just a witness to my lifetime And I m a stranger to my friends I m a traffic cop A broken, damaged heart
